Legs facing the qiblah while sleeping
Question
Is it ok if a person is sleeping with their legs straight when the qiblah is at a slight slant? What if in one's sleep, their legs shift and face the qiblah?
Answer
If one fears that while sleeping one's legs will face the qiblah, then one should change his sleeping position.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
